Henlo frens!

Good to see all of you here UwU.

Grab on to your bodypillows, I have a smol announcement about the purpose of this subreddit.

This community is meant as a fun, lighthearted place where we can commiserate with each other about those annoying little irritations that hinder our day to day enjoyment in life.

That means that suitable posts here can be about my children.

And things like a wall socket or tile being placed out of allignment. A crack in a phone screen. Duckling shit on your new car. Incomprehensible software. Mismatched buttons. You know, the little things.

This subreddit isn't meant to incite rage mobs that go after people. For that reason we say:

No reddit meta posts

No posts about being banned from subreddit. No posts about up- or down-votes. No posts about shitty moderators or users or subreddits. No posts about reddit.

All jokes and tomfoolery aside, that sort of thing gets us in trouble with site admins. If we allow one type of post about reddit it then very easily moprhs into allowing posts that directly call out other subreddits or users, we just can't allow any of it.

That rule already existed for years and we have just made it more clearly visible in the sidebar on old and new reddit. We're gonna be a little strict on it for a bit I'm afraid. 🥺

Thank you all for being awesome and have a very Merry Christmas! Celebrate Christmas in the traditional European way, with a suasage roll!

You can choose any of these or none at all when posting whatever you want, it's not like I care your not even my real dad.

Kolkata’s Chingrighata Flyover got a colourful makeover, but apparently road safety was optional. 🌈😭 Wet painted roads and skidding vehicles — all for aesthetics? Anti-skid surfaces should come before beautification.

Too mild for school My 7th grader refuses to put "50%" as the answer here because it's "not how my teacher taught us" and I won't tell him what 63/90 is as a percent as a matter of principle against a poorly worded question! (It should say "flipped an uneven coin" or "experimental probability")

No matter how many times it landed on heads previously, the theoretical probability of the next flip is still 50%

Last week I saw on facebook that it was my childhood best friend's birthday, so I wished her a happy birthday. She responded and said that since we're in the same city for the first time in awhile, we should get lunch! I said yes and we decided on a place. Then this happened. At some point this morning I remembered she did this to me once before, years ago. Ffs

I'm slightly vexed What do I do with a $500 Staples gift card now?

Post image

Had a bunch of shopping points saved up but most of the places I can redeem these points are restaurants and clothes but I saw that Staples had a single 32GB DDR5 kit still in stock and I have two open slots. I would never pay $500 for a 32GB kit but technically it's free so I redeemed points for a Staples card. Made the order and and immediately (and I mean within seconds) I get this order cancellation email. Now I'm stuck with a $500 staples gift card...oh and the RAM is still showing as in stock.

Infuriatig The pharmacy didn’t fill my prescription because paying out-of-pocket isn’t allowed

Post image

It’s only $40, I have no idea why I’m not allowed to pay for it. I called all my other local pharmacies and none of them have inventory since it’s on manufacturer back order.

Ive never been a conspiracy theorist, but this seems like collusion to gatekeep medicine.

Don't hug me I'm scared My mum has damage a number of my my most valuable paintings 2 days before I was taking them to a market to sell

I am genuinely still mid meltdown lol. But I am an artist and I have a small market the day after tomorrow and when gathering my works I've just found that my mum has jammed ALL my work into a small crevice. Because of how tightly she's don't this, a lot of paint has been scraped off my work.

They aren't all viable paintings as in my rookie haste a few years ago I varnished them with modpoge, but these are works that means a lot to me.

Some of the paintings I consider to be my best work ever and that I have won prizes for are now just completely unsellable. And literally every painting that has ever earned me any recognition is all scraped up.

I could theoretically fix them but some of them I finished over a year ago and worked in a long series of glazes and optical mixing so it would just take forever. Though, I did manage to fix one but as it is an oil painting it won't be try for the weekend.

I'm so upset that she's treated my work so poorly leading to this.

Previously I have never paint just be scraped off the canvas and I am not someone who I particularly careful with their work beyond not doing anything that's literally just gonna ruin them.

I am so upset but I guess this is just how life goes.

These new routers have a terrible plug that not only is so wide that it blocks at least two plugs below it, but actually extends the other direction and blocks the outlet above as well!

I'm slightly vexed Everyone seemed to think we’d give our neighbors our driveway

16.2k Upvotes

So we got back from a week away to a notice from code enforcement that we need to clear and keep clear the back half of our driveway.

After a little investigation, we figured out that our neighbors (whose house sits on the property line) had some electrical work done. Somehow, both the electric company and whoever grants permits with the city believe that we granted them an easement of our driveway, and they went ahead & got the permit & and did the work awhile back.

Now, the neighbors are in trouble with the electric inspector bc our wood pile and car block the required abatement. So the neighbors called code enforcement to cite us for a violation. Which I suppose they hoped would get the electric inspector off their backs. (The electric inspector said he’s been on their case for weeks, but they just ignore him.)

The electric inspector and the code enforcement officer were completely unaware of each others involvement…I had to give them each others numbers.

At least, that’s what I understand, but it all just seems so…idiotic? Like why would the neighbors lie about an easement, and how did so many people believe that we’d give an easement of our driveway (that we actively use)? What happened to “believe, but verify?” What a dumb thing to use up city resources.
